What is convesation of momentum?

The law of conservation of momentum states that momentum cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred. In other words when you hit the wall with your fist, the wall gains the momentum your fist had while it was flying through the air toward the wall.


Does your home insurance increase if a car crashes into your wall?

No, but whoever was driving the car...his insurance cost will increase! It is the insurance on the car that crashes thru the wall that has to pay the claim. 4lifeguild


When a wrecking ball hits a wall it is not moving fast How can it have enough momentum to knock down a wall?

Momentum is a function of both mass and speed. The wrecking ball isn't moving very fast, but it is extremely heavy; that is where its momentum comes from.


When you kick the football on the wall will momentum conserved?

Yes. We know that momentum is always conserved. While the wall does not appear to move, it does slightly move and sway a minuscule amount. Also, if the wall is firmly implanted into the ground or is part of a large building, the momentum is delivered to the entire building and earth, causing negligible shifts in the building's structure or shifts in soil compactness around the wall. It just is so small that we can assume that the wall does not move.


If a car crashes into a wall the wall puts a force on the car the car puts an equal force on the wall what does each force do?

the wall changes the shape of the car while the car changes the shape of the wall


What is an example for conservation of momentum?

the equal force applied by a wall when you push agaginst it


What in physics is the example of a car veers off course and runs straight into a brick wall so that pieces of the wall break free too?

short time, large force momentum and conservation of momentum when 2 objects collide


What is physical meaning of momentum thickness?

Physically the momentum thickness may be conceived as transverse distance by which the boundary should be displaced to compensate for the reduction in momentum of the flowing fluid on account of boundary layer formation.


During Oblique Impact does the vertical component of velocity change after impact?

When a ball collides with a wall, at an angle θ say, the impulse exerted on the ball is perpendicular to the wall and causes a change in the momentum of the ball in that direction; it does not however affect the momentum parallel to the wall. Therefore, if the approach velocity of the sphere is resolved into components parallel and perpendicular to the wall, one of these components is changed by the impact and the other remains unchanged.
